THE REVERSO DISCOVERY WORKSHOP THE REVERSO STORIES EXHIBITION

THE REVERSO STORIES EXHIBITION

A LEGEND BORN OF A CHALLENGE

The Reverso Exhibition
In 1931, Jaeger-LeCoultre launched a timepiece that was destined to become a classic of the 20th-century design: the Reverso.

Created to withstand the rigours of polo matches, its sleek, Art Deco lines and unique reversible case make it one of the most immediately recognisable watches of all time. 

Through nine decades the Reverso has continually reinvented itself without ever compromising its identity: it has housed over 50 different calibres, while its blank metal flip side has become a canvas for creative expression. Today, the Reverso continues to epitomise the spirit of modernity that inspired its creation.

The Reverso Discovery Workshop
The Reverso Discovery Workshop will explore the origins of the Reverso case – from its Art Deco lines to its ingenious swivelling mechanism – then will trace its evolution through the decades, as a canvas for artistic expression and a home to high-watchmaking complications.

Participants will dive deep into the Reverso archives and go hands-on with a variety of models. Finally, guided by an expert from the Manufacture, they will take on the unique challenge of assembling more than 50 components to create a Reverso case – a fascinating test of dexterity and patience !
